Ahhhh 9 days here! Where on earth did all this time go? I am freaking out. How's everyone holding up?

My face looks like crap - so broken out!!! ):

But other then that... I'm great! Big things are done!

If it makes you feel better - my face was super broken out, so I got a facial and now it's super dry (but at least most of the acne is gone... just a new problem different day). Good luck getting your face cleaned up, I've been battling acne my whole life and it's not a fun battle at all!!

jynxiie · October 2014

@dignity100 I'm in the same boat. I think I'm the only person I know that had children's acne.... which turned into teenage acne.... and now adult acne. It's really not fun...
Thank you though, here's hoping!

I'm just hoping my stupid period will hurry up and start so that I can be completely over it before the wedding! According to my calendar is should start tomorrow but I'd rather it be right NOW so it will be done by Tuesday at the latest.

Mine started on Sunday and I don't think I have ever been so grateful to get my period! It should be done by tomorrow and then I am in the clear for the wedding and honeymoon! Thank God!

My period's been all over the board. Last month it started on the 22nd... It was suppose to start on the 7th. I'm worried it will show up during the wedding unfortunately. I hope not.

I am just having a crappy month. I was laid off like two weeks ago and then I started a temp gig Monday and that ended today... and I am just trying to make the money work and what not. Otherwise everything is good here. Things are planned, just the last minute things I can't do until next week like my hair and nails and picking up linens and everything.

I'm sorry to hear this! Getting laid off is the worst feeling. Hang in there!

rsbloom · October 2014

Made final payments and confirmed everything with the venue and caterer yesterday, so I feel great about that! Waiting to do last minute stuff like nails and waxing, but all big things are taken care of, including when everyone is showing up.

Little nervous about my photographer, because he may not have a second photographer show up. He usually takes on interns that are training, but his intern has family stuff to do next weekend, so he's trying to get another photographer he's worked with before to come. If the second photographer doesn't pan out, we'll get money back, but it still sucks.

I will really get back to looking hard core when we get back from the honeymoon in a few weeks.

Ooooh where are you going?!

jenijoyk · October 2014

Seriously. Someone teach me how to meditate. Stat. I feel like a walking time bomb of crazy.

hkda2003 · October 2014

My period came today, and my face is crazy broken out too. I also have battled acne for my whole life, like literally been getting zits since I was 5!! But now it's usually just bad at the start of my period so by the 18th I should be ok, I hope!!! Today is my last work day before the wedding, some I'm soooo glad I'll be able to focus all of my time on wedding stuff until the big day!! I still haven't received my cake topper, so I'll be making my own tonight as a back up, bc I'm not trusting this woman at all anymore!!

We are going to be in Las Vegas from the Monday after the wedding (10/20) til Friday! We are really excited.

weeniedogs · October 2014

I cant believe its almost here! I dont know about any of you but ever since the 10 day, I have been checking Weather Channel religiously! So far, 'MOSTLY SUNNY, 20% RAIN!' Please keep fingers crossed for no rain and a beautiful fall Maryland evening!

SehlinBride · October 2014

I am a hot mess!!! LOL Bachlorette party was last Saturday and I spent Sunday and Monday recovering then......Tuesday I came down with a cold!!! Stuffy nose, sore throat (today I had no voice when I woke up), clogged ears and a slight headache....WTF!!!!!! Why!?!? Ughhhh!!!! It gets better....my florist/wedding coordinator has been in the hospital since Tuesday and I am stressing the F*ck out!!!! On the brighter side I picked up my dress today so that's done! Have all the table cloths and runners that's done! I have about 75% of my décor and will be getting the rest of it next Thursday!!! My mom just ordered (I know) our guest "book" which is actually a slab of wood engraved with our last name and wedding date and she gets to pick that up on Tuesday. Still need to decorate party favors (jars of jam). Still need to make final payments to caterer, DJ and photographer. I pick up my ring on Wednesday from the jewelers...they sent it out to get "dipped"/pretty for the big day! And we still need to figure out what to pack for our honeymoon!!!! I know it will all come together but good grief this is a lot of stress!!!!!

cherryblossoms21 · October 2014

seriously made a list and almost had a panic attack.

Thankfully period over with for this month!!

kschork87 · October 2014

So excited!!!! We have to finish the seating chart this weekend (everyone is at their tables, we just need to place the tables on the diagram), finish the favors --we tested last week and it doesn't take long, and then just run a few errands. Oh and I need to get my ring cleaned! Hopefully by next Wednesday, when I'm off work, I shouldn't have much left besides dropping stuff off at the country club. I just cannot believe that it's in 8 days!!! It feels so surreal and I won't even believe it's really happening.

jynxiie · October 2014

Almost a week away, it's so soon!

weeniedogs · October 2014

Holy cow, 7 DAYS!

jenijoyk · October 2014

Last weekend, ladies!!!! How crazy is your Saturday so far??? I have done nothing, and instead remained paralyzed on the couch with indecision on how to prioritize.

rsbloom · October 2014

FI's Bachelor party is today/tonight, so I have the apartment to myself!

I packed stuff I don't want FI to see, and I'm doing a bunch of laundry today, so I can finish packing. I want to clean the whole apt this next week, so we come back to a clean house from our honeymoon.

I bought a bunch of travel toiletries and emergency kit stuff for next weekend and the honeymoon.

I'm going to keep sorting laundry and finish up grading. 1st quarter grades are due 2 days after we get back!

smalfrie19 · October 2014

Our bach parties are tonight. I actually need to start getting ready in like an hour and a half.

labro · October 2014

I had my final fitting today! Everything looked great so I took my dress back to the salon to be steamed and pressed. I also picked up my hotel welcome bags and did a ton of yard work this evening. Still need to trim the bushes in the front yard but I guess that can wait til tomorrow. Tomorrow I also need to get our programs, escort cards, and menus printed.

weeniedogs · October 2014

Well, girls - Our last Sunday of singlehood. Only two days of work to get through, and then we make the 12 hour drive to Maryland on Wednesday! Only until now, I feel like my head is a cluster. I am SO worried about forgetting together that we need to do, or worse, afraid of forgetting something that we need to bring up with us. Everyone is telling me to make a list but what if I miss something on the list?! Ahh!

All payments are made. All last minute details (should be) are done. Packing for the trip AND the honeymoon will be completed today or tomorrow. I cant believe our week is finally here! It has been so wonderful having all of you girls here to plan, ask questions, and have support from during our wedding planning process! You guys have been a huge hope for the past year!

Please post tons of pictures - I'd love to see wedding and rehearsal dinner pictures! I will be scarce for this week, which is why I'm saying my congratulations and thank yous now! You all will be beautiful brides!

bekt14 · October 2014

Happy wedding week girls!!

Don't let yourself get stressed, just have the time of your lives! And be safe while traveling!

Lauramae980 · October 2014

Wooo! So close! I've been at a temp job the past month here I can't go to the community boards (but the rest of the site is fine). I was wondering how the October people were doing! I can't believe it's almost here! It's little stuff now. All the big projects are done. Family arrives in a couple days. I can't wait!

jenijoyk · October 2014

I'm so excited!!!! Parents arrive tomorrow, bridesmaids and other out-of-towners arrive on Thursday.... Aaaahhhh!

The only thing left is to try and make it through work today and tomorrow morning! I can't concentrate on anything!

Good luck all of you! Soak in the moment! Can't wait to see pictures of my wedding date twins.

Oh, and I wish you all wonderful weather!

sarawifenow · October 2014

I swear that time is going slower today than it usually does. I looked at my clock, waited an hour, looked at it again, and it had only been 5 minutes!

How am I going to get through the rest of today and tomorrow???

ShellePurdie1 · October 2014

Did anyone else take this week off work? I only took Friday off and now I'm kicking myself for it!
